MCA PEP TALK

Mrs. Froiland visited our classroom last week for a MCA pep talk.  She compared our MCA Tests to "Game Day".  The day that we have been working toward all year.  The students watched a short video entitled 212 Degrees: The Extra Degree.  The message that the video shared is that at 211 degrees, water is hot. At 212 degrees it is boiling. Boiling water produces steam which can power a locomotive. That is all produced in that 1 degree.  How many of us go through life at 211 degrees rather than doing our best and breaking through to 212?  The students shared their ideas of how they could reach 212 degrees on test day.  
These were their ideas:

Focus                                              
Take Your Time                
Don't Give Up
